Constructors
Credentials()
publicCredentials()Methods
blockingGetToCallback(URI uri, RequestMetadataCallback callback)
protectedfinalvoidblockingGetToCallback(URIuri,RequestMetadataCallbackcallback)Call #getRequestMetadata(URI) and pass the result or error to the callback.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| Name | Description |
uri |
URI URI of the entry point for the request. |
callback |
RequestMetadataCallback Callback handler to execute when the metadata completes. |
getAuthenticationType()
publicabstractStringgetAuthenticationType()A constant string name describing the authentication technology.
E.g. "OAuth2", "SSL". For use by the transport layer to determine whether it supports the type of authentication in the case where Credentials#hasRequestMetadataOnly is false. Also serves as a debugging helper.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
String |
The type of authentication used. |
getMetricsCredentialType()
publicCredentialTypeForMetricsgetMetricsCredentialType()Gets the credential type used for internal metrics header.
The default is CredentialTypeForMetrics.DO_NOT_SEND. For a credential that is
established to track for metrics, this default should be overridden.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
CredentialTypeForMetrics |
a enum value for credential type |
getRequestMetadata()
publicMap<String,List<String>>getRequestMetadata()Get the current request metadata, refreshing tokens if required.
This should be called by the transport layer on each request, and the data should be populated in headers or other context. The operation can block and fail to complete and may do things such as refreshing access tokens.
The convention for handling binary data is for the key in the returned map to end with
"-bin" and for the corresponding values to be base64 encoded.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
Map<String,List<String>> |
The request metadata used for populating headers or other context. |
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
IOException |
if there was an error getting up-to-date access. |
getRequestMetadata(URI uri)
publicabstractMap<String,List<String>>getRequestMetadata(URIuri)Get the current request metadata in a blocking manner, refreshing tokens if required.
This should be called by the transport layer on each request, and the data should be populated in headers or other context. The operation can block and fail to complete and may do things such as refreshing access tokens.
The convention for handling binary data is for the key in the returned map to end with
"-bin" and for the corresponding values to be base64 encoded.
| Parameter | |
|---|---|
| Name | Description |
uri |
URI URI of the entry point for the request. |
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
Map<String,List<String>> |
The request metadata used for populating headers or other context. |
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
IOException |
if there was an error getting up-to-date access. The exception should
implement Retryable and |
getRequestMetadata(URI uri, Executor executor, RequestMetadataCallback callback)
publicvoidgetRequestMetadata(URIuri,Executorexecutor,RequestMetadataCallbackcallback)Get the current request metadata without blocking.
This should be called by the transport layer on each request, and the data should be populated in headers or other context. The implementation can either call the callback inline or asynchronously. Either way it should never block in this method. The executor is provided for tasks that may block.
The default implementation will just call #getRequestMetadata(URI) then the callback from the given executor.
The convention for handling binary data is for the key in the returned map to end with
"-bin" and for the corresponding values to be base64 encoded.
| Parameters | |
|---|---|
| Name | Description |
uri |
URI URI of the entry point for the request. |
executor |
Executor Executor to perform the request. |
callback |
RequestMetadataCallback Callback to execute when the request is finished. |
getUniverseDomain()
publicStringgetUniverseDomain()Gets the universe domain for the credential in a blocking manner, refreshing tokens if required.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
String |
a universe domain value in the format some-domain.xyz. By default, returns the Google universe domain googleapis.com. |
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
IOException |
extending classes might have to do remote calls to determine the universe
domain. The exception must implement Retryable and |
hasRequestMetadata()
publicabstractbooleanhasRequestMetadata()Whether the credentials have metadata entries that should be added to each request.
This should be called by the transport layer to see if Credentials#getRequestMetadata should be used for each request.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
boolean |
Whether or not the transport layer should call Credentials#getRequestMetadata |
hasRequestMetadataOnly()
publicabstractbooleanhasRequestMetadataOnly()Indicates whether or not the Auth mechanism works purely by including request metadata.
This is meant for the transport layer. If this is true a transport does not need to take actions other than including the request metadata. If this is false, a transport must specifically know about the authentication technology to support it, and should fail to accept the credentials otherwise.
| Returns | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
boolean |
Whether or not the Auth mechanism works purely by including request metadata. |
refresh()
publicabstractvoidrefresh()Refresh the authorization data, discarding any cached state.
For use by the transport to allow retry after getting an error indicating there may be invalid tokens or other cached state.
| Exceptions | |
|---|---|
| Type | Description |
IOException |
if there was an error getting up-to-date access. |
